All About Accelerometers for Vibration and Shock Testing

Acceleration! We are exposed to it every day. When we change speed while driving, flying, riding a bike, etc.
"Accelerometer Selection" covers how accelerometers / transducers work, how they are used, and how to use an accelerometer to measure vibration and shock acceleration (gn).
My thoughts and prayers go out to all those affected by the Corona Virus (COVID-19).

wish you could be my Teacher during my graduation course.

Literally- the best.

Thank you!

[@corywaxman3039]

where is a good place to buy the accelerometers you referenced in this video?

[@tomreshtesting]

There are a few accelerometer companies you can go with. PCB Piezotronics is my favorite manufacturer of accelerometers. Also, Dytran is good especially from a budget standpoint.

[@corywaxman3039]

@@tomreshtesting Thank you so much for all of these videos. I have a solid background in physics and little knowledge of this field but your videos cleared up all the basics. All the best!

are accelerometers good to detect tremors in Alzheimer's patients instead of using piezos?

[@tomreshtesting]

Not too familiar with tremors in Alzheimer's patients, but I do know there are white papers on using wireless accelerometers with Parkinson's patients. Only concern I would have is how to reliably create a "connection " of the accelerometer to the patient with minimal decoupling. Most likely a tightly fitted ban with an attached wireless accelerometer would be the best route to go.

Thanks, the video is informative! but the forced excitement in your tone gets annoying.

[@corywaxman3039]

there are plenty of monotone engineering lectures.....at least this guy is interested. In fact, it may sound forced to you, but some of us legitimately get excited about this stuff.
